Wednesday Workings, November 20, 2024


Someone was at Rosie's on Friday purchasing fabrics for Bonnie Hunter's 2025 Winter Mystery.  I am going to have to start sorting out my fabrics soon for this one called Old Town (Starowka).  I am planning on making her 2024 Winter Mystery (Indigo Way) at the same time.  Both will be using her suggested colors.  Those of you who know, Bonnie brings to us big quilts with many units will think good grief!  I will be making each of them a smaller version so I can keep up!


Kolorado is finished with the exception of the applique.  There is a snow board leaning up against the house, head lights on the truck, skis on the barn, and finally the barn quilt above the barn.  I will be working on these later tonight.  The outside boarder was chosen in part because it uses the same fabric as the tree skirt I made last year.  This will be a finish come Sunday.


These are Christmas ornaments that I will donate to the Summers Past Craft Fair that Sunshine Guild will participate in early December.  They are made to look like iced cookies with sprinkles.  I have a bit more to stitch before they finish.


Kork is ready for the final steps adding sashing and boarders.  There is an orange plaid fabric used in a few of the acorns that will also become the binding.  This will be a finish come Sunday.


To break things up a bit and because it would be nice to donate the top to the Summers Past Craft Fair event, I got this project going.  Lorna put it together with donations to Sunshine Guild.  The printed blocks in Christmas scenes are surrounded by either the green or the red and pulled together by matching four patches.  There is a beige plaid for an inner border and the plaid for the outer boarder and back.  The red comes back again as the binding.

Cross stitch project Forest Friends moves right along.  I still need to get floss 632 to finish the deer.  I suppose I could move on to the panda, but I would rather complete the deer first.  I do have other hand work to keep my hands busy!

Happy Wednesday =^.^=
